A+ certified... Finally!

So 1 year of on and off study for the a+ and 6 months after passing the 701 I finally got around to finishing the a+

Passed the 702 today with a score of 755. Extremely happy.

I got the same question 3 times worded differently which was a nice little bonus. Glad I studied ping switches before walking in!

Do I need to sign up or register on comptia site to receive my certification or in due time will comptia automatically mail it to my address that I entered on Pearson vue?

Congratulations!

Your certificate should arrive in due time. You will not need to do anything unless you go 6 weeks or so and then you will want to contact the exam vendor. Otherwise, enjoy your success and prepare for your next exam.

Will I eliminate some classes at WGU if I become A+ certified? If so, I might take the cert. I took a A+ course in college and I am pretty sure I can pass this exam if I try. And how much is the exam? Thanks

For me it was $215 each exam as I am I'm Australia. A lot of money to pay for a certificate that has no value here. But the content I learnt was worth it to me.

Comptia has a spreadsheet on their website with pricing depending on which country you live in the prices vary.

If your in the USA I believe there are websites that offer vouchers/discounts as well that may be worth looking into.

Cheers, already employed as a trainer/analyst for the companies ERP system(Australia)

Doing some certs for my own interest and to see what I eventually want to go into as I only career changed into IT in April 2012. system admin will be my next role more then likely or IT business systems manager.

next up education wise im going to teach myself basic linux and basic SQL(no cert) and then move onto network+, security + , linux + after that.

Yes you will. You will eliminate 2 classes actually because WGU splits the A+ exam in to 2 tests, as it is now anyhow. 220-801 is one class, and 220-802 is another class. I am doing that myself now. I would suggest that you take any tests that you think you can pass with a little brush up review now BEFORE you enroll in WGU. It'll go a long way for you. Good luck!

Congrats!! Hopefully soon I will be able to make a thread about me receiving the A+ cert!
It's also nice to see that you have a plan for the next couple certs you are aiming to receive.
Good luck!
